Rocky Mount Mills – Capitol Broadcasting Company

Located along the falls of the beautiful Tar River, Rocky Mount Mills is a development of historic proportions, bringing together residential, commercial, cultural, and entertainment amenities in one unique destination. The 82-acre campus of this restored cotton mill showcases a bold approach to historic preservation that honors the past while also breathing new life into this storied place. It’s a place to wander, to explore and be surprised — a place to craft your own story.

Throughout its 140-year history, the Rocky Mount Mills were an economic driver for the region before ceasing operations in 1996. You can learn more about RMM’s history through UNC Chapel Hill’s Community Histories Workshop.
